Top of the bill is news that the next Zelda game will be shown at E3 this year. That, along with the Vitality Sensor, seem to have top billing at the games show. But there were a number of other titles mentioned for release this year that will get Nintendo fans in a giddy panic.

We already know that Pokemon is set to make an appearance with the re-makes of Gold and Silver including the PokeWalker gadget arriving in March. Iwata has now suggested that a brand new Pokemon game is in development.

If RPGs are your thing then Golden Sun DS is sure to please, as is Mistwalker’s The Last Story and Xenoblade from Monolith Software.

Probably the biggest release after a Zelda game is Super Mario Galaxy 2 which is making an appearance in 2010 and will surely bring in millions of sales for Nintendo on the Wii.

Finally, lets not forget the other big selling franchise expected to have a new release this year in the form of Metroid: Other M

It does look as though Nintendo could be in for a very good year in terms of game sales. Mario Galaxy 2, Pokemon Silver & Gold, Golden Sun DS, Xenoblade, and Metroid: Other M are all certain releases. Then we may also get a Zelda release and new Pokemon game in time for Christmas.

All that leads me to believe we won’t be hearing anything about new Nintendo hardware this year and the predictions of an April 2011 release for DS 2 may be a bit early.

If your Wii is gathering dust under the TV then you may want to clean it up in anticipation. DSi and DS LL sales are sure to be pushed up in the coming months and on release of the Pokemon re-makes on March 14th.
